Pineapple Smoothie Skin Benefits
Packed with delicious, tropical fruits, this yummy smoothie wakes you up with a nutritious boost that also enhances the look of your skin. As Marlowe explains, pineapple provides your body with fiber, vitamins, nutrients and enzymes, including bromelain, to support good digestion. Pineapple is packed with nutrients like Vitamin C and bromelain, and when formulated into a skin care product, the fruit encourages radiant, glowing skin. Bromelain enzymes from pineapples are an effective natural exfoliant that gently removes dead skin cells and visibly renews the complexion.
This recipe also includes oranges, for a boost of Vitamin C, and ginger, which provides anti-inflammatory benefits (a huge help for any inflammatory skin conditions, like acne). Coconut-based yogurt provides a vegan source of probiotics to nourish the gut while collagen powder provides protein and supports skin elasticity and hydration.
